With ARCW offices in 9 communities throughout the state, more than 2,500 people with HIV disease gain access to essential health and social services. Dental Care is provided through the ARCW Dental Clinic in Milwaukee and Green Bay. In 2006, comprehensive preventive and restorative dental care was provided to 1,020 HIV patients from all areas of the state. Mental Health therapy is an essential component of comprehensive HIV health care. In 2006, the ARCW Mental Health Clinic in Milwaukee and Kenosha provided therapy to 165 HIV clients including a unique psychotherapy group for gay African-American men. Legal Assistance is provided by ARCW lawyers who travel to all corners of the state to protect the rights of people with HIV. In 2006, legal assistance was provided to 773 HIV clients on issues such as discrimination, estate planning, health care directives and entitlements. Accessible • Housing Services were provided to 718 people in 2006 including $633,000 in rent assistance and 15,000 overnight stays at ARCW housing facilities to assure that no one with HIV in Wisconsin is homeless. HIV Prevention services are accessible throughout Wisconsin. In 2006, the ARCW Lifepoint needle exchange program opperated in 10 Wisconsin cities, 150,000 total prevention contacts were made and 2,508 HIV tests were conducted across the state. Food Pantries in Eau Claire, Green Bay, Kenosha and Milwaukee make nutritious food accessible to more than 1,100 individuals across the state. ARCW food pantries provide 250 tons of food every year, 30% of which is delivered to homebound HIV clients. Case Management is accessible at all ARCW offices for every person with HIV disease in the state. More than 1,500 people use the ARCW case management system every year to gain access to the care and treatment they need. Integrated • Quality • Compassionate • Accountable Integrated At ARCW our physicians, nurse practitioners, nurses, dentists, psychologist and mental health therapists are an outstanding, multidisciplinary health care team working to meet the complete health needs of our patients. They work in collaboration with our case managers, housing counselors, food pantry personnel, lawyers and prevention specialists to provide a highly integrated system of support. Through the integration of these services ARCW is at the forefront of HIV care and treatment. Tyrone Baldwin Christina Colón “People with HIV who are homeless and seek our help often struggle with addiction to alcohol and drugs. It’s a tremendous help to have the unique ARCW harm reduction drug treatment program available for them. Along with our intensive housing case management system and the ARCW Mental Health Clinic we have wonderful resources that help our housing clients gain the support and skills they need to sustain long-term, stable housing.” “Informing people that they are HIV positive is a difficult part of my work. What makes it easier is that I can immediately take them to the ARCW Medical Center to schedule an appointment for the health care they need and then walk with them down the hall to see a counselor who will help them understand HIV and all the support they will have at ARCW.” Director of Housing Prevention Coordinator Steve Debbink, DDS Dental Director “An important part of overall health for HIV patients is quality dental care that allows them to maintain healthy nutritional intake. It’s so heartening to know that at ARCW we have food pantries that provide my patients with the healthiest, most nutritious food. It puts a smile on my face to see my patients walk out of ARCW with several bags of groceries knowing they will be eating well.” ARCW Medical Center Integrated HIV care & treatment Cindee Shapiro Vice President of Health Services Dental Care Mental Health Therapy Medical Care “ Our goal is for all our patients to succeed with their treatment plans so they can lead long and healthy lives. With our medical, dental and mental health clinics we are integrating physical and mental health services to provide our patients with the most comprehensive care that addresses all their health needs. Our strong food, housing and case management services also provide tremendous support that helps our patients adhere to treatment regimens that are often very difficult. We take pride in our integrated approach to care that gives our patients the best chance for success with HIV treatment.” Food Pantries ARCW patients Case Management Drug Treatment Legal Services Accessible Housing Assistance • HIV Prevention Integrated • Quality • Compassionate • Accountable Quality While ARCW is the largest provider of HIV health and social services in Wisconsin, it is the quality of care, not the quantity that matters most to our patients and clients. We are dedicated to continuous quality improvement in all our services so that ARCW is a center of excellence and is at the forefront of HIV prevention, care and treatment. Experienced Medical Providers The ARCW Medical Center has a highly experienced team of medical professionals led by two outstanding infectious disease physicians, Medical Director John Fangman, MD and Iram Nadeem, MD. Joining them in providing quality patient care are two nurse practitioners and three registered nurses. Together this seven-person medical team has 70 years of experience in HIV care and treatment.

Marshfield Midelfort/Mayo Clinic Eau Claire Rodney Scheel House Madison St. Mary’s/Duluth Clinic Superior Sixteenth Street Community Health Center Milwaukee University of Wisconsin Family Medicine Wausau Accessible • Integrated • Quality • Compassionate • Accountable Compassionate Every day there are wonderful examples of compassionate care at the AIDS Resource Center of Wisconsin. Whether it is the gentle support that is given to a nervous young man who is taking his first HIV test, or the reassuring mental health counseling that helps a single mother with HIV resolve her anxiety and fear, or the sensitivity with which a health care provider works with a patient to create a successful treatment plan — the prevention, care and treatment services of ARCW are always provided with compassion and respect. Growing up within a large family in New York City, Shirley Morgan learned the importance of having compassionate people supporting her. Today, as a recovering drug user, a woman living with HIV and a resident at the ARCW Wisconsin House, Shirley has come to appreciate the compassionate support she gets from a new family of counselors, case managers and health care providers. “Life was hard for me in New York City because of my drug addiction and because of my struggle with HIV. I knew that if I stayed there I wouldn’t be alive today. So I moved to Milwaukee to change my life for the better, and that’s just what has happened. The Wisconsin House is a blessing for me. The staff really does care about me and the other residents. They put in long hours to help us work through our problems and they’re teaching us skills so we can solve problems on our own in the future. I’ve got a big battle ahead of me with HIV and drug recovery. But, I’ve also got a compassionate family of supporters at ARCW who believe in me and are helping me succeed.” Shirley Morgan “I never would have imagined a 58-year-old man crying when he opened a gift on Christmas morning. But I did. The gift was a soft, warm robe and a beautiful pair of pajamas. Something I wanted very much but could not afford. It’s not easy living with this disease and the holidays can be a difficult time. But your holiday gift program brought me real joy this year. Thank you ARCW for being such a big part of my life through the medical clinic, dental clinic and the wonderful food pantry.” -- A Thank You Note Received from Walter Barnes, ARCW Patient Walter Barnes Bob Bowers is a 23-year HIV survivor from Madison. He is also an outstanding AIDS advocate and educator who shares his personal journey with thousands of people and always imparts his vision that “compassion is our cure” in the epic battle against AIDS. Bob recently experienced the compassion he envisions at the ARCW Dental Clinic. “I had a very bad tooth causing me lots of problems and, like most people with HIV, I had a hard time getting a dental appointment. Some clinics would take me, but only to do an extraction of the tooth. When I called the ARCW Dental Clinic I got an appointment immediately, and much more. I was welcomed warmly by the dental staff and then Dr. Debbink and I talked about saving my tooth. He performed a root canal and my tooth is now as good as ever. Most people dread the thought of a root canal. But my experience was one of quality care in a dental clinic full of compassion. It made my 150 mile round trip from Madison worthwhile.” Bob Bowers Accessible • Integrated • Quality • Compassionate • Accountable Accountable To Our Friends in the Fight Against AIDS: The AIDS Resource Center of Wisconsin has a long history of accountability to our donors, government funders, patients, clients and people throughout Wisconsin who are counting on us to lead the fight against AIDS. We take great pride in being outstanding stewards of the resources that are donated and awarded to us. Our record of sound financial management makes us financially strong and builds our capacity to expand services to all Wisconsin residents who are touched by the AIDS epidemic. In 2006, the ARCW Medical Center emerged as Wisconsin’s largest provider of HIV health care and the largest provider of care for indigent HIV patients. The continued success of the ARCW Medical Center will determine whether Wisconsin achieves the global goal of health care for all HIV patients. Doug Nelson We are determined to meet this goal and give people with HIV disease in Wisconsin the opportunity for long and healthy lives. We pledge our finest efforts and continued accountability to all who support our important work.
